The report is that they've got one of the cannulas out and are working on the second one now. (I went on a hunt to find someone who could tell me something!) I don't know anything else because we're in the waiting room so we just keep praying and petitioning for the Lord's favor to be upon Chrissie in every way from her head to her toes and every nook and cranny in between, including her blood and gasses in the blood. God is able. He heals the broken-hearted and binds up their wounds.

This message is sent to you via the blessing of Lorraine's cell phone. :-)

I am on my knees in a room just upstairs from you at Methodist Hospital as I type...Praying over my 3 yr old son, and for your precious little girl right now! Believing that God has big plans for these angels! He can breathe life into her...and yes He can bind up their wounds. In Jesus name, Amen!

Lorraine - I'm praying, praying, praying. I just know that the Lord will make this Witness Wednesday - that we will witness the miracle of God's healing power in sweet Chrissie. Fight, girl, fight! Be strong, and I pray that she's healed from Head to Toe and everywhere in between!!

Still here and praying and believing God with you for a miracle and for the LORD's favor to rest on Chrissie and for healing for her broken heart. We speak life now over Chrissie.Love and hugs and prayers,Debi

If you only knew how many people are praying for you right this minute, who are praying for you constantly, lifting you up in prayer---people you've never met, who never knew your name until a few short, eventful days ago.... You are a warrior, and God has big plans for you, I just know it. I can't wait to hear how those plans unfold in your life!

We are all praying for Mommy & Daddy, and your brothers and sisters, too. From what I read, they are waiting for you to come home and dance and run and jump on the trampoline and play hide-and-seek, so you be strong while God heals you.

That's right, Lorraine, He is the One who heals. Our God is the One True God, the Almighty Powerful God and the One who loves Chrissie more than we can possibly imagine. She is in the best of hands and here at the Jacobsen house, we are praying like crazy that our desires line up with His will. I'm exhausted for you both but will not give up this spiritual battle. Much love - Julie

Our Ukrainian Additions

These are our new sons! Click their picture to read the story of how God worked miracles to lead us to them while in Ukraine Dec. '11.

Sons of our Heart

These were our Summer '11 host boys who we planned to adopt. God brought us to Ukraine Dec. 2011 to adopt them, but turned the events to lead us to adopt 2 six-year-old boys with Down syndrome! Our host boys now live with their bio aunt, but they'll always be sons in our hearts.

About Lorraine

Hi, I'm Lorraine. I'm just one member of Team Boss Your Heart, but I happen to be the one who keeps up with this little blog God started in December 2009. I'm mom to 13 (3 bio, 10 adopted, 1 in heaven), so I don't devote as much time to updating this blog much anymore--sorry! This is my online diary/scrapbook of sorts, a way to record this journey of large family--special needs--blessed by adoption--ranch living--Jesus loving life. Explore this blog (and BossYourHeart.com) to get to know us, as well as the ministry and testimony God has given us. It's not your typical family testimony, but it's the one He's written for us, and we wouldn't have it any other way.
